Yahoo Mail

Yahoo’s existing Mail app was previously optimized for the smaller-screened form factors of the iPhone, iPod touch and Android smartphones, so users of Apple’s omnipresent tablet (those with a Yahoo email address, at least) and Android tablets will be delighted with the new incarnation.

As you’d expect from any tablet-optimized app, Yahoo Mail has a full-screen ‘reading mode’, meaning you can use the device’s full real estate when reading emails or viewing photos. One tap, and you’re there.

You can also scroll through email messages like turning the pages of a book – no need to exit back to your main inbox (via the gift shop).

For Android, iPhone and iPad users, there’s a new ‘Starred’ folder too, which centralizes all those messages you want to revisit for whatever reason. Android tablet users can now access an advanced ‘triage’ feature to manage their inbox quicker.

Oh, and according to the release notes, there’s also now extended support for Romanian, Thai, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Dutch, Swedish and Greek too on the updated iOS version.
